It sounds to me like the profiling was to let you go after the quick look.
That's what I would've done too.

Coupla days ago, I was en route to my rental house, when I encountered a NC Highway Patrol license check point just down a hill and around a curve from a chicken processing plant. Immediately upon seeing the flashing lights and the officers in the road, I pulled out my wallet and had my "license" ready
as I pulled up to the tall, slim and nice-looking young black man in his
immaculate uniform.  As I reached toward him with the card, and as he was
reaching for it, I realized that I was handing him my military ID card
instead of my license.  I suddenly laughed as I was pulling it back to
retrieve the right card and said, "Oh, I pulled out the wrong card."  He
also chuckled and said as he waved me on, "Oh, you're alright, go ahead."


By the way, that's the sixth time in about 2 months that I encountered such check points somewhere in the area of that processing plant, but I had never
seen that officer before.

If you're wondering why I would pull out my military ID at such a check
point, it's 'cause that's what I hafta do when entering the local (or any)
Air Force or military base - so, force of habit.  'Have had to show my
license only very rarely in 62 years of having one. 'Have shown it more in
the last 2 months out near that chicken plant than I have in many years.
